Palazzo Falson, formerly known as Palazzo Cumbo-Navarra, Casa dei Castelletti, and the Norman House, is a medieval townhouse in Mdina, Malta. It was purposely built as a family residence by the Maltese nobility, and it is named after the Falson family.
Palazzo Falson, Mdina’s second-oldest building, was once home to well-travelled artist, scholar and philanthropist Captain Olof Fredrick Gollcher. Since 2001, it has been restored to its former glory and houses an exceptional array of paintings, manuscripts, jewellery and other artefacts.
Also known as the Norman house due to the style it is built in, this building has been restored to its former glory and has several collections housed here. There is also a cafeteria on the rooftop.
